Recoil for a Jiffy Legend

I was out the other day and I pulled the rope on the auger, but it did not recoil. I took apart the recoil today to discover that I had cracked the plastic housing that holds the two small spring-loaded levers. My question is where do I find replacement parts other than from the factory? I would like to be able to drive somewhere and pick up the parts and get back out on the ice ASAP. Hand-drillng through 20" of ice is not as much fun as it sounds

Went out yesterday after the wake and visitation with Finn. He flushed two hens and I saw him chasing a rooster but I am not fast enough to keep up. It flushed about a hundred yards out from me. We seen one grouse but it flushed 60 yards in front of Finn and he was only 10 yards infront of me. Then Finn started going crazy so he headed into the cat tails and wow 50 or so mallards flew at me and then 7 big swans. Finn did not look happy that I just watched them. It was a fun little trip.
Anyone else Lise out there chasing birds yet?

Quick question, we have never come up in the winter, but it's my understanding the ice is usually questionable around Oak Narrows and Timbuktu. Does anyone know what the ice is usually like in Birch Narrows (West Hinsdale) and Smarts Bay (SW area Hinsdale) around the Retreat Lodge Area which is where our island property is.
Thanks for any insight
